The field research and associated laboratory analyses reported in this volume represent more than twenty-five years of investigation in Upper and Middle Egypt by the Belgian Middle Egypt Prehistoric Project of Leuven University.

Cave art is a subject of perennial interest among archaeologists. Until recently it was assumed that it was largely restricted to southern France and northern Iberia, although in recent years new discoveries have demonstrated that it originally had a much wider distribution. The discovery in 2003 of the UK’s first examples of cave art, in two caves at Creswell Crags on the Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire border, was the most surprising illustration of this.
